Val Full Volume

You're procrastinating again, aren't you?  There may be some validity to your procrastination.  Is your business the wrong one for you? Even though you have a lot of ideas about how it will make money, you keep putting things off.  The time has come to take a deep dive into your business.

As a business, there are so many things you can do online.  Are you sure you are doing the right one?  Now is the time to journal about it.  Take out your journal and write everything down.  Your business journal is not for others to read, but for you to describe what it means to you... and what it doesn't mean to you.  

Val has two questions for you to journal about your business:

1.     Why are you working in your current biz?

2.     Is it for the right reasons or because you feel you must?

Declutter Your Biz Challenge

Declutter your Biz challenge isn’t just about decluttering your digital files.  It’s about decluttering the space around you too. You know you are ready for a deep declutter when you find yourself doing other tasks you usually hate to do.  You know, the bathrooms are clean, and the house is spotless and vacuumed… that’s when it’s time to take a look at yourself.  What’s your mindset right now?  Are you running away from a task that you should be doing?

Val created the Declutter Your Biz Challenge to help you (and her) get better organized and figure out what’s going on around you.  When you have a messy desk, you’ll often find you have a messy headspace.  Don’t jump on that hot mess express, find a few moments to clear your area and you’ll be surprised at how quickly you’ll get back into those tasks you were procrastinating on.  Looking for some support and guidance?  Join the free Declutter Your Biz Challenge today and remove the clutter from your space, mind, and biz.

What have you done in the past that you can bring back into your life? Anything that needs revisiting?  How about a rewrite or maybe a complete overhaul? We often think that we need to move forward, and continue with something new.  But that’s not always the case.  Sometimes stopping to reflect on those things we have a passion for in our past can still bring us joy today.  Perhaps it just needs to be reworked?

It could be time to reflect on old experiences.  Do you remember when Google stepped up its game and your bounce rate was hurting your standings?  How about blogging? Ever flip a website?  (Psst. It’s just like house flipping!) And let’s spend a minute chatting about how awesome volunteering feels…. Yeah, today we’ll talk about all of these and why the knowledge you have in your head is so valuable to what you can be doing now.

I am open to possibilities.  I am grateful for the awareness.  I am me and I’m not sorry.  How often have you found yourself starting the conversation with “I’m sorry…”?  We are so conditioned to start a conversation this way but are we really sorry?  Sometimes you have to sit in your feelings, feel those “feels” and realize that no… we aren’t actually sorry.

Today’s episode brings a raw look at how we work through our feelings and how to push forward.  When you stop and reflect, you then have a chance to think about whether you’d do something differently.  It’s time to stop the “I’m sorry…” concept.  By acknowledging that you aren’t sorry, it can bring you a little peace.  Imagine the possibilities!

What expertise are you bringing to the table?  Everyone has experience.  Whether you’ve been in business for 1 year or 22 years, you’ve been growing and learning along the way.  Have you tabled an idea that maybe might have some merit now?  If you’ve been thinking about an old idea you had, it might be time to flip that old idea on its head.  Maybe try doing it a different way.

Val is bringing you some inspiration on revisiting those old ideas.  You know, the ones that maybe didn’t really pan out the first time BUT… now, it may stand a chance.  You are wiser and more knowledgeable, systems have changed, automations have changed… heck, life has changed.  Maybe the key to that old idea was that it wasn’t its time back then.  Maybe it’s time to dust off that old idea and revamp it.

What could possibly be holding you back in your business? Have you taken on other responsibilities? Perhaps you are a caregiver. You may be held back by others.  Time may be too tight for you, or your creativity is running wild. It's also important to consider your own mental health. You must pay attention to each of these things and respect their needs. And that could be putting a wrench in your business plans.

Val's here after a tough week to discuss all those things (big and small) that are holding each of us back from reaching our goals. In reflection of the workload she's had over the last few years, she's ready to make some changes. How much are we really doing? What do you enjoy doing and are you doing it? Let's talk about the silver linings...

“How are you

going to market yourself when you’re afraid to be seen?” That is the key

question on Val Full Volume today.  Our guest on the show is Pam Hamilton,

author of The Ten Principles of Visibility: Helping You Find the Courage to be

Seen.  Years ago, Pam was painfully shy and had to work hard to find her

authenticity and true self.  During her search for herself, she discovered

that people can easily feel worthy, loved, authentic, and visible by following

easy steps!

This

conversation can help you attract all the right people, things, events, and

opportunities if you have felt invisible or have struggled with your business.

It is possible to build the steps towards your goal and be visible with

self-determination and love.

Can you imagine what it would be like if your dreams were easy? Imagine your dreams in living color, you know exactly what you want, now they are coming true. Despite this, you find yourself scared. Scared that it was too easy! Embrace your zone of genius and ride your dream to your very own lake house instead of sabotaging it.

As we look at your past dreams and goals, we'll see what happens when they come true. As you grow, you are moving closer to that dream you have always dreamed of. Imagine that dream, embrace it, and remember that you would be super proud of where we are today. We are discussing making our dreams come true and what it would feel like if all your dreams come true.

Consider what it would be like to have a career and always be waiting for validation.  Waiting for permission, that one person to say you can do it?  Then one day, like a lightning bolt, it hits you – you don’t need any permission.  You can do whatever you want with your business and your life!  This is exactly how Christina’s life made a turn and she started her podcast, Hudson Valley Bride.  

My friend Christina Lemmey is here to chat about her lightning bolt moment and how she made the decision to go from ghostwriting and podcast coach to creating the podcast of her dreams.  We are talking about that hard thing today… Change.  All the market research and all the binge-listening to podcasts can’t prepare you for that one moment in time where you know instantly you need to make a change.  Listen in as we talk about how to create your dream ideas into a reality.

Who are the members of your community?  Those who like your Facebook page or group aren't the only people I'm talking about.  Or the people who follow you on Tik Tok or Instagram but really engage with you.  The people who subscribe to your mailing list, read almost all your emails and engage with you.  Those are the people we are talking about.

People who want what you have, and who appreciate what you offer, are the ones you want to nurture and love in your community. You might need to get super targeted and laser-focused on who you are talking to if you don't know who they are.  Today's episode will help you find that special audience that's made just for you.  Then be sure to jump over to my freebie, Who the Hell Are You Talking To? Mini-course and get some clarity on your community.
